Thailand Tabloid Publishes David Carradine Pic

Carradine Family Request FBI Assistance To Determine Cause Of Death

June 6. 2009

According to Radar Online, A tabloid in Thailand published a nude, death photo of actor David Carradine, who died performing an auto-erotic sex act on himself that involves strangulation. He was found dead, hanging in a closet naked with a cord around his neck and penis. His family is outraged the photo has been published.

It does appear to be a privacy breech that should have been avoided. However, I think they published the photo, due to the fact Hollywood denizens appeared on Larry King stating his death was foul play, insisting there is a cover-up and claiming he was found with his hands tied behind his back. The published photo reveals his hands were not tied behind his back.

Their claims on the Larry King show contradicts the Bangkok police's investigation and CCTV footage that revealed no one entered his room during the time of his death.

Due to the thoroughly embarrassing manner in which Carradine died, his family has requested the U.S. FBI initiate an investigation independent of the authorities in Bangkok or join the currently active one in Thailand, where the actor was shooting a film, when he accidentally killed himself.

Are they sure they want the FBI to get involved in this type of case. Remember the comments passed between agents when it was discovered, U.S. Senator Mark Foley, was propositioning underage boy pages in Congress.

If they were notating such items in their reports, such as calling him "a freak" just image what they were saying about the Foley case off the record in FBI offices and locker rooms. Now image what they'd write and say about the Carradine case.

Carradine's family wants FBI to investigate death

BANGKOK (AP) — The family of American actor David Carradine has asked the FBI to help investigate his death after his body was found in a hotel closet in Thailand's capital with a rope tied to his neck, wrist and genitals.

Hotel surveillance footage indicated no one entered Carradine's room before he died, the policeman leading the death investigation said Saturday.

Carradine's body was reportedly flown out of Bangkok in the morning, bound for Los Angeles.

His family does not believe he committed suicide and is troubled by conflicting accounts about the circumstances of his death, Mark Geragos, an attorney for brother Keith Carradine, told CNN's Larry King late Friday.

"They want an investigation," Geragos said. "I would think that the people in Bangkok would want to support an investigation and allow the FBI to go over there and assist in the investigation so we can get the answers to the questions."

Thai police said Saturday they have not been contacted by the FBI...

'David Carradine was murdered' claims agent, as the Kill Bill star's family ask the FBI to probe his death

06th June 2009 - David Carradine's family have asked the FBI to investigate his death amid speculation the 72-year-old Kung Fu actor was murdered.

The star was found dead in his hotel room in Bangkok on Thursday and it was initially believed he died from accidental suffocation as part of a sex game gone wrong.

But Carradine's agent Chuck Binder last night said he believed the Kill Bill star had been murdered.

According to reports, Binder said Carradine's hands had been tied behind his back and a footprint on the bed did not match his shoes.
